The Right Solution Starts with a Correct Diagnosis
The Magellan Building AssessmentThe Magellan Building Assessment (MBA) assesses different aspects of your building or home, including a comprehensive inspection of both the interior and exterior of your property. The MBA is a careful investigation of your historical building that will give you visibility into its assets and potential liabilities, with the goal of helping you determine next steps.
Interior Assessment
- Attic
- Accessible framing and structure
- Insulation and ventilation
- Location of leaks
Exterior Assessment
- Roofing (flashings, tile/slate, flat roofing, underlayment, roof deck)
- Masonry (chimney, walls, parapets)
- Carpentry (dormers, soffits, fascia)
- Gutters and downspouts (collector boxes, eave troughs, gutters)
During the inspection, the Historical Building Specialist will take digital photographs, which will be included with the written assessment and recommendation.
Drone Inspection
For certain assessments, we use drone technology to collect information about your roof and exterior systems and identify potential hazards that may affect the integrity of the property without putting anyone at risk.

Discovering Problems Before More Damage Occurs
All historical buildings require repair over time. Maintaining small, but vitally important, parts of your exterior are critical to protect your property from:
- Aging caulking used to seal joints between dissimilar materials
- Squirrels, raccoons, and other wildlife that can do damage to your roofing, siding, wood, and more
- Deteriorating mortar between bricks that can cause leaks
- Wear and tear on your chimney
An MBA equips you with the information you need to find issues you didn’t know existed early, potentially saving thousands of dollars in interior and exterior damage. And our services come with a 100% money back guarantee.

HISTORICAL RECORD OF CURRENT CONDITION
Not only will your MBA prove valuable should you decide to sell your home or property, but it can also provide crucial documentation should your home or property be damaged by a storm or fire. The photos and written report from our MBA will provide what you need to your insurance carrier to prove your building’s condition prior to the damage.
With the photos we take and the written report we fill out, you’ll have valuable information on the condition of the property. One client used the photos from their MBA to prove their roof was undamaged prior to a hailstorm, which helped them receive more than $10,000,000 for their historical roofing system to be entirely replaced.
